[Entries now closed] Win a Brayton Laguna cat by Bauer Pottery — three winners!

Pam Kueber - Updated: October 8, 2020

Retro Renovation stopped publishing in 2021; these stories remain for historical information, as potential continued resources, and for archival purposes.

brayton laguna catFinal report, Saturday, June 8: Congratulations to Kristin, Jenny, and Margie — our three winners, all confirmed! Thanks, everyone, for playing! ENTRIES NOW CLOSED.

It’s giveaway time — and this time, there will be three winners! Once I started talking with the owner of Bauer Pottery about the mid mod mad Brayton Laguna cats the company is now making from original 1960s molds, it seemed like a no-brainer that a giveaway would follow. And indeed, Bauer Pottery is generously offering to send one of these sleek sculptures to three winners. Choose your color!

After my initial story Bauer Pottery asked if they could send me a cat, and I accepted the gift so that I I could check it out and photograph it in a room setting for this giveaway. I think the cat is scrumptious, and my husband saw it and was like, wow! As you can tell, I’m partial to the black. Thank you, Bauer 🙂

    I decided I would like an orange cat but it might revert to aqua or orange or white! Likely black …

    I love these cool cats and the subtlety of the design. I think that I would choose the aqua color as it is a great mcm color but not too overpowering.

    Hi – after reading your story I purchased the black model for my girlfriend’s birthday. It was packaged so well, it was part of the adventure to unpack. She loved it – very surprised that i would pick-out something that was just perfect.

    A Bauer Pottery cat! And the colors are scrumptious! How to choose?!?! We have a sweet but sassy tuxedo cat, so the black MIGHT win out………

    Thanks for doing this! Very cool cats. Orange please for my mid century Florida home. Bunny

    I just realized that I have a cat toilet brush holder in my bathroom that I could angle to get into a staring contest with one of these cats. The Bauer cat would definitely be staring down my other cat ?

    Orange or aqua for me. This cat reminds me of my grandparents who loved interesting decor that tells a story and Bauer Pottery!

    As the ‘steward’ of a historic home and the ‘chief of staff’ to one cat currently (and over a dozen others over the years), I would adore adding this cool cat sculpture to my collection of cat artwork.

    Would look great on my mantle. It looks like one is a grayish color. My living room is perrywinkle. Am excited as me and the cat are the same age.
